In the Eyes of the NSA, Who is Considered a Terrorist? |
|
However, fear has also followed this week's events. Why? Well, thanks to a new tech expert, I had a security program installed and have been alerted to potential "hacker" attempts from France, Bejing-China, Australia, Thailand and Fort Lauderdale, Florida during the past week. For the first time in my life, I started to wonder, "In the Eyes of the NSA, Who is Considered a Terrorist?"
Afterall, as an advocate for sex abuse victims, families and whistleblowers, I communicate via e-mail throughout the world almost on a daily basis, submit letters to editors and articles through www.opednews.com (with a strong international presence).
The Patriot Act and the Bush administration have assured all Americans that the surveillance of international communications and phone calls are a must in the interests of national security. And, most all of us can agree, national security is one of the highest priorities in the United States today. However, the "hacker" attempts are puzzling.
My faith in the checks and balances of United States leaders, especially as it relates to national security, continues. Yet, one has to wonder if "hackers" outside of the United States are attempting to intimidate the guaranteed freedoms of press, speech and opinion in the United States, especially as it relates to sex abuse victims, their families, those who protect them as mandated reporters and the return of denied justice and peace, throughout the world.
Without justice, there will never be peace. Without peace, faith and our country's laws are empty.
